Grease, kitchens and Fewcott
Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service covers Fewcott. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract. About 57 miles out from central London, Fewcott is part of the South East area we work across. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible.
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Bicester Community Hospital (about 4.2 miles south-east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. Where a hall near Church of St Mary, or anywhere in Fewcott, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

Grease filter exchange for kitchens and businesses in Fewcott
Each visit is quick and tidy. The greasy filters come out, clean ones go in and make sure there are no gaps between them. If something looks wrong, we tell you. The work covers mesh filters, wall canopies and school and hospital kitchens, and common reasons people get in touch are filters that come out of the sink still dirty and filter washing that keeps being missed.
Work in a small place like Fewcott starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

When it’s something else
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what grease filter exchange will not do:
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which need odour control
- A heavily greased plenum or canopy, which needs cleaning to TR19
- Greasy ducts and risers that a filter change will not reach
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on in Fewcott
- Mesh filters
- Island canopies
- Wall canopies
- Restaurants and pubs
- Baffle filters
- School and hospital kitchens
What the work involves, part by part
Baffle filters
When baffles fill with grease, less air gets through. Swapping them for a clean set restores it.
School, care home and staff kitchens
Visits can be planned around holidays and quieter periods, keeping the filters ready for the busy weeks.
Fewcott: your questions answered
Which environmental health team covers Fewcott?
Kitchens in Fewcott are inspected by Cherwell council’s environmental health officers. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
Is Fewcott within the area you cover?
Yes. Fewcott is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
How long does the visit take?
We’ll confirm the time with your quote. For a typical site, it takes a few minutes per canopy, longer for a large kitchen with several canopies.
What should go in our maintenance log?
The reports and certificates from each visit, plus your own logs. They’re what an insurer, fire officer or EHO may ask for, so keep them where they can be found quickly.
Do you deal with bent or broken filters?
Filters that no longer fit properly need replacing. We will tell you which ones and why on the visit.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. Work is timed around how each site runs.
Does a filter exchange disrupt service?
A filter change is quick and can be timed around service. Cooking shouldn’t happen with the filters out, so we swap them in one go.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
The report shows them clearly. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, which we can install.
Why it’s worth doing now in Fewcott
For any kitchen in Fewcott, filters cannot stand in for a full TR19 clean. But clean filters do help the system between cleans and the canopy and plenum stay cleaner. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
You will not find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we will explain what it covers.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Keeping the system healthy
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:
- Tell us if a filter is bent or damaged
- Keep every filter in place during service
- Wipe the outside of the canopy as part of daily cleaning
- Keep filter exchange and TR19 cleaning on the same plan
Once the clean filters are in, the kitchen can cook straight away. We take the greasy filters with us for cleaning.
A kitchen that is getting busier needs its filters changed more often. Changing the interval early stops grease building up unseen in the ducts.
What we do, step by step
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. The visit itself takes a few minutes per canopy, longer for a large kitchen with several canopies. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Fewcott can be planned properly.
- We look at the canopies and the condition of the filters.
- We note any filters that are bent, damaged or missing.
- Greasy filters are swapped for clean ones.
- The filters are checked for fit before we go.
- Anything that needs attention, such as a greasy plenum, is pointed out.
How to prepare
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
Getting a quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
